Here in this pic the sun is at between 14.00 or 11.00. and therefore the shadow should be completely solid at the base where the stabilizer is fixed to the body... it's not what it should be anyway, it's like they're offset and detached from the aft fuselage. (take a look at the above posted picture of the Bf's and notice the shadow, it's the same sunposition more or less)

Actually, the stabilizer is not fixed to the fuselage on this model, it tilts and so it has a small gap. Look at the shots again boys and be marveled. I do think however that the gap might be a bit much, but then again shadows are funny things both in life and in games.
